Testosterone therapy with Testopel® and the Esoterix Laboratory assay: A CASE study
We present a patient receiving Testopel® implants whose serum testosterone levels, as measured by a CDC certified assay, were accurately predicted by a multi-compartmental model. This is the first time a model has predicted measured serum testosterone levels within 4% of values calculated. To our kn...

Summary: | We present a patient receiving Testopel® implants whose serum testosterone levels, as measured by a CDC certified assay, were accurately predicted by a multi-compartmental model. This is the first time a model has predicted measured serum testosterone levels within 4% of values calculated. To our knowledge, it was also the first time a pharmacokinetic model allowed patient targeted serum levels (peak/trough/average) to be reached within three months. |
